Please do this:

	redir -o liballeg.lst -eo ar tv liballeg.a

then post the contents of liballeg.lst.  It seems that the library is 
empty or incomplete, but I can't be sure without seeing the above output 
("ar tv" prints the contents of the library).  If I'm right, then the 
problem happened in previous stages of your build process, and you will 
have to unzip the sources from scratch, run Make again with the `redir' 
redirection like John Aldrich told you, and post the log of that run, so 
we could see what, if at all, exactly went wrong.  I suggest you delete 
the entire directory where you try to build Allegro before you unzip the 
sources, so previous trouble don't mess up your second attempt.

Keep trying, I think you will have your problems solved this time.
